Madrid to Bali, Indonesia from €595

This deal vs. typical deal price for this route — verified 20 May 2026 at 17:58 UTC

With 10h 30m outbound and 20h return in Chengdu Tianfu (TFU), you have time to explore Sichuan’s capital — China’s laid-back food and panda city. TFU sits ~60 km from the city centre, connected by metro Line 18 (~30 min, ¥10). With the 20-hour return layover you can easily check into a city hotel for the night.

What to see in a short visit:
• Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding — best in early morning when pandas are most active (¥55 entry).
• Jinli Ancient Street — Sichuan-style food street, lit lanterns at night, free entry.
• Sichuan cuisine — mapo tofu, dan dan noodles, hot pot. Worth the heat.
• Wenshu Monastery — quiet Tang-era Buddhist temple in the city centre, free entry.

Visa note: China’s 240-hour (10-day) visa-free transit applies to most EU passports through Chengdu Tianfu — you can leave the airport without a visa as long as you have an onward ticket to a third country and stay within Sichuan province.

🌍 About Bali

Bali is the one Hindu island in the world's largest Muslim-majority country, which is why you'll see daily palm-leaf offerings on every doorstep and why the temples — Uluwatu on its sea cliff, Tirta Empul's spring-water purification pools — are working religious sites, not relics. Eat babi guling, Balinese spit-roasted suckling pig with crackling skin and a paste of turmeric, lemongrass and chilli; warungs cook it overnight and sell out by early afternoon, so go for lunch. Ubud inland is the cultural heart (rice terraces, craft villages); the south is beaches and traffic. Come April–October for dry, sunny days; late September and May hit the sweet spot of good weather and thinner crowds. November–March is wet but cheap, with short heavy downpours. One catch: on Nyepi (19 March 2026), the whole island — airport included — shuts for 24 hours of silence.
